They don’t need to worry about coming back from vacation early to craft an emergency spending bill. All they really need to do is ride Alejandro Mayorkas like a rented mule to make sure he spends what they gave him on disaster relief this time. He blew the entire year’s budget on illegals, long before hurricane and wildfire season hit. Then, he went begging to congress for funds to “replenish” the money he misspent. He got it. He’s not getting another dime, so better spend it wisely.
FEMA freshly funded
FEMA has their disaster relief money, again. Hopefully, they can spend it on what it’s intended for, this time. On Tuesday, October 1, House Speaker Mike Johnson clarified to the press that “Congress has already authorized the disaster relief funds needed for the immediate response to Helene.” If you think things aren’t moving fast enough, call DHS.
After a Biblical flood inundated everything from Florida into Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina, Alejandro Mayorkas appears to be missing in action.
He probably doesn’t remember but just last week Joe Biden signed it into law. Maybe he didn’t know that “a replenishment of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) disaster relief fund was included in a three-month stopgap government funding bill that Congress passed.”
They gave Mayorkas the money once and he spent it on expediting the entry of terrorists and gang members. To offset his mismanagement, they confiscated his salary.
Once arson fire season started blazing away in California, Mayorkas suddenly realized he had no money to pay the firemen with. He went begging to his Democrat friends in Congress and they wrangled him some more disaster money.
The trick is convincing FEMA to actually spend it on disaster relief. “Congress has previously provided the funds it needs to respond, so we will make sure that those resources are appropriately allocated,” Johnson promises.
Biden calling Congress back
On Monday, Joe Biden shook the sand out of his shoes and wandered into the office for a fresh supply of Ben & Jerry’s. While he was there, he suggested “he may request that Congress return from recess to pass a supplemental relief bill.”
He knows Mayorkas isn’t going to spend his disaster budget on pumps and trailers. Not unless FEMA can move a family of migrants into them. Joe “expects” congress is going to need more money printed up.
“That is something I may have to request, but no decisions are made yet,” Biden babbled. As soon as they got the stopgap government funding bill out of the way they vanished into hiding.
FEMA can get along without them for a few more weeks. Most of the legislative branch plans on hanging out in their safe rooms for a while. They aren’t “scheduled to return until after the November election.”
Johnson didn’t rule out “authorizing supplemental relief funds for the Helene response.” He simply doesn’t plan to even think about it until after the election.
If Mayorkas is on the way out by then, FEMA won’t need more funding. Meanwhile, they gave him what he needs and accountants will watch over his shoulder to see where it goes.
